Default RE: Speed is all you need! (?)

Hi ya' ll I am new to the forum but not to bow hunting
I have been bow hunting for drawing on 30 years and have taken 40 some odd witetails with a bow

I myself can see all the reasons why alot of people want speed but in my opinion the super lite stuff should be left on the 3D coarses,and turkey, and antilope hunting

I know that with my experiance most deer that I have taken have come within 15yards or less so speed for hunting is something that I cannot justify to throw out pure devisating energy and raw power

We as hunters owe it to the Sport , game we hunt, and other Sportsmen to be as ehtical as we can

40-50 yard shots and over? NOT ME in hunting situations there are far to many veriables to deal with! your chances of wounding an animal starts to increase with every extra yard

Yes you may be a great shot on target but in a hunting situation there are to many things that can go wrong

Most important in bow hunting is to Have sharp broadheads, take high percentage shots, know your limitations, and have patiance

Just my 2 cents worth
